My Background and Approach
I have over 10 years of experience in the mental health field in a variety of settings including doctors’ offices, education settings, and private practice agencies. I am passionate about creating a safe space for clients to be their full selves as they work towards healing and wholeness and believe it is an honor to be part of your healing and mental health journey. In my work with clients, I am mainly a client centered counselor who believes that the relationship between therapist and client is a powerful tool for growth and healing. I enjoy getting to know my clients and helping them feel comfortable in our work together so that they can have the vulnerability and trust to do the hard work of growing. I consider myself a mirror in that I hold up a reflection of what the client is bringing into our work, consciously or unconsciously, as well as a partner on the therapeutic journey. I also use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and work to infuse spirituality and faith as desired.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have a special interest and passion for supporting Black women who who desire to be seen, valued, and welcomed into the therapy space. We know that our humanity as black women is often missed or overlooked. We carry the dreams and needs of others in addition to our own. We are burdened with ideals of perfection while living as flawed individuals. As therapists, we recognize that Black women are rarely given the opportunity to be imperfect while growing and therefore work to provide a safe space for their growth and healing.
